Santorum Attacks Malia's Trip

Rick Santorum is appalled that the president would let his daughter Malia vacation in Mexico, despite a recent travel warning for the country by the U.S. State Department. "What I would say is that the president's actions should reflect what his administration is saying," the Republican presidential candidate told Glenn Beck on his radio show Tuesday. "If the administration is saying that it's not safe to have people down there, then just because you can send 25 Secret Service agents doesn't mean you should do it. You should set an example. I think that's what presidents do. They set an example. And when the government is saying this is not safe, then you don't set the example by sending your kids down there."
